I'm a frame-free, hoop-less hand quilter, but I didn't start out that way. My quilting inspirations have roots within a wooden quilting frame, and my initial hand quilted stitches started out within a hoop, but I never learned how to use that frame, and my quilting stitches almost ended inside that very same hoop. Thanks to a chance comment from a kind quilt shop owner, I found the confidence to stop trying to follow the quilting rules that don’t actually exist, and instead to listen to my body and do what felt natural and comfortable. Doing so helped me discover a quilting freedom I never imagined possible, and led to quilting adventures and encounters that have enriched my life, and have been stitched into my quilts.
